Visit to Cory's Aquarium Co-op in Edmonds, WA. A must-go fish store if you are in the area!

Me a little too excited to be there lol. Beautiful tanks, filled with rare and beautiful fish, with automatic water change systems and individual sponge filtration...a hobbyist's dream lol

My grandfather and Cory. This is my grandfather's favorite store :)

Cory keeps a tight, well-run ship at the Aquarium Co-op. Every tank has its own individual filtration, and is also on an automatic water changer, so that the fish are in top-notch condition. He is also an active member in the Greater Seattle Aquarium Society (http://www.gsas.org/), a really great organization of fish keepers in the Seattle area that my grandfather likes to frequent. They have a great website to peruse in addition to the meetings/auctions.

Cory strives to offer fish that were bred by local hobbyists, so you see some pretty cool stuff here at really reasonable prices. I wish this place was in San Francsico!

Below is Hank the Mbu Puffer, Cory's son and and amaaaazing presence in the shop!

Can't wait to see this tank grow up :)

A cloud of clowns! (They were in a huge tank, just all crowded over to say hi lol)

Rare Lake Tanganyika Killifish (locally bred)

My new favorite catfish - Flag Porthole Catfish!

Beautiful tanks full of plants to buy...

A lot of rare livebearers, like this Limia Tiger

Gorgeous Millenium Red Rainbows!

Ground zero at Aquarium Co-op!

Cory also keeps a great blog at his website (http://www.aquariumcoop.com/). Highly suggested reading! This is one of my favorite stores and I can't wait to go back and visit again. For us betta lovers, Cory is planning on buiding a betta barracks system in the store to showcase them! Go Cory!
